With structuredAttrs enabled, environment variables should live inside the `env` attrset. In the case of this project, this affects COQBIN, as per NixOS/nixpkgs#492142 , which moves it into env. Setting `COQBIN = "";` in `default.nix` while `env.COQBIN` exists causes an evaluation error: Error: The `env` attribute set cannot contain any attributes passed to derivation. To fix this, remove the attr instead if it exists, in either place. Update after NixOS/nixpkgs#492142

I'm not familiar with this project other than being referred to it via NixOS/nixpkgs#492142 (comment) , so any pointers are welcome.
Tested
nix-shell --arg do-nothing false --run "genNixActions"onand I observe no change in the generated
nix-action.*files while the eval error is gone.
